Celebrity Status

So this must be what it feels like to be a celebrity. Today was a relatively warm day so I loaded up the boys and took them shopping in Old Town. While strolling along the ancient brick sidewalks, the boys were bombarded with ecstatic smiles, friendly stares, and gushing compliments from complete strangers. Rarely did we walk past a person who did not exhibit one of these reactions. Granted, the boys did look particularly cute and Christmasy in their matching green snowman overalls and red knit hats, but we have grown accustomed to such reactions in public places no matter the season or location. Whether we're at the grocery store, a restaurant, or simply taking a walk around the neighborhood, we have gotten used to all eyes being on the spectacle which is our twins. So now whenever Joe and I go out by ourselves without the boys in tow (which isn't very often), we can't help but feel slightly neglected. It takes us a while to get used to not being the center of attention!
